Creamy Tahini Coconut Vegan Ice Cream

Luxuriously smooth coconut milk ice cream sweetened with maple and enriched with tahini for a nutty, ultra-creamy dairy-free scoop.

Preparation:  20 mins
Servings:  4

Instructions

Step 1: Chill the ice cream bowl

Place the ice cream maker bowl in the freezer for at least 12 hours (overnight is best) before starting.

Step 2: Make the base

In a large bowl, whisk the coconut milk, tahini and maple syrup until smooth. If the coconut milk is separated or chunky, blend the mixture until silky.

Step 3: Churn until thick

Pour the mixture into your machine and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions until softly set, about 18–22 minutes.

Step 4: Serve or firm up

Scoop and enjoy immediately for a soft-serve texture, or transfer to a lidded container and freeze 1–2 hours for a firmer scoop.

Step 5: Optional toppings

Serve plain or finish with sesame seeds, tart cherries and vegan chocolate chips to taste.

Step 6: Storage tip

If frozen longer than 24 hours, let the ice cream soften at room temperature for about 20 minutes before scooping.
